Poor guy is wearing a tattered and ripped dress, I'd be mad too if I didn't have fresh clothes. So if you have Dwarves mad no matter what, check their god damned clothes! Dude's so mad he's probably pretending to kill those figures with his axe. Edit: I say this but I have clothing and he's just not putting any on. Maybe children can't change clothes for some reason?

How old is this dwarflet, maybe they can only change clothes after they're old enough to drink.

Some kids got stuck in a tree somehow with a horse foal and all of them died of thirst. A kid played make believe around presumably his friend's tomb. Another kid went berserk, and was immediately killed by a miner. It's ok, they're really enjoying the wine being made upstairs.

What I want to know if its really true is that thing about being able to receive dwarven caravans underground if your trade depot is built down there. Every bit of information I've found says caravans can only leave via the underground (and only if the surface is inaccessible) not arrive by it.Mirthless posted:Caverns fortresses are really cool

Seriously if we could get caravans and migrants via the first cavern layer, I'd never bother with the surface, past initial digging lol. Who needs humans, or elves, or golbins?

I would love to be able to forbid a jeweler from being able to encrust barrels and buckets until the end of time. Even when I set a specific stockpile to draw from, he seems to want to re-encrust the same barrels and buckets sitting in his workshop.

I finally hit the caverns and before I could make a wall around my stairs a troglodyte sprinted up to the surface where it was set upon by my dwarves and visitors. It got it's rear end kicked so bad on the main stairwell it's arms/legs/teeth were spread across 5 levels.

Is there a nuance where fresh meat won't burrow properly even though it's assigned, like they need a little while to be told? I just had a siege that I wanted to just button up through, but ten dorfs out of a population of 45 decided that picking berries was more important. Almost survived it anyway, it was six demons that my hammerlord pulped in sequence before they got to more than two randos, but in the parlay phase they destroyed my entire workshop line and all of the repeating jobs just by existing next to them and honestly setting that back up feels like 90 percent of a restart. Alternately, how do I just give in if they offer parley? It's just a lovely $2000 drum they were after, I agreed and dismantled the grates in front of it but they didn't just take it and leave.

It's just a lovely $2000 drum they were after, I agreed and dismantled the grates in front of it but they didn't just take it and leave. One of your dwarves (I think your leader) has to take the artifact to them, so if they were restricted to the burrow or something that'd be why. But when you pay enemies off with a parley it's only temporary, I think they always come back later with more demands

Are dwarf children bugged right now? Feels like they never claim a bedroom on their own, instead claiming one of those bound to a tavern, which IIRC is what visitors and long-term residents are supposed to do.emSparkly posted:Funnily enough, a video on this exact concept just appeared to me.

My barracks are just empty rooms for sparring and my squads are doing fine, picking up their gear from whatever general equipment stockpiles. In other learned-it-the-hard-way news, don't send your nobility or other office and dining room holding dwarves on raiding missions, they forget that they had those rooms and get cranky until you realize you need to reassign the rooms to them.

Edit: How do I get rid of caged prisoners? Caught a hill giant and a couple of batmen, and I can't really think of much to use them for.

I believe children are supposed to live with their parents until they become adults... Or is that only 'baby' dwarves? I thought it was both, but I could be wrong. Either way, i don't know why they'd take a tavern room.

If you can figure out how to release them in this version (I haven't got to that point), they can be very useful for training your dudes. Release them in the barracks for your hand-to-hand troops, or across a chasm to let your archers practice. In older versions, at least, hitting a live target trained skills significantly more quickly.

It might take multiple flooding and evaporation cycles to build up enough mud to boost fertility. Nile farming is potentially back-ish.

This is what I said earlier and then deleted, because even the thinnest layer of mud still isn't listed as poor, but I have gone throught the effort of making all my farms into the thickest mud layer, just because I can. I swear I turned weres off in worldgen, but a werelephant just turned up and wiped me out. Better turn it off in settings too.

Thanks for the answers! BTW, I have a weird issue: I haven't gotten migrants at all this year at 20 dwarfs...but I've gotten 6 (!) performers as residents, with the understanding that after 2 years they can become full citizens. Is this actually a good way to pick and choose migrants for my fortress, if real slow?

RE mineral scarcity: I made a custom world with it set to 669. The embark locale says it's got iron and tin on it, but all I've seen so far is tetrahedrite (copper and silver) and I'm down to mining the third layer of the caverns. OTOH, nearly all of my stone is flux, and I have a near endless amount of lignite and bituminous coal for coke production. My cavern layers also came weirdly early -- I got to the second cavern layer before I was 10 z-levels below the surface. 500-1000 is probably a good sweet spot for the settings; my last fort, I was getting so much metal that I was running out of non-economic rock. Now I feel lucky just to find a bit of copper  Protip if you have a large sediment layer -- if you're like me and use these for your workshop layers (because they're much easier to mine out and you can empty a bunch of space quickly), keep in mind that it's all gonna turn into subterranean flora the nanosecond you breach the first subterranean layer. Pictured: Originally all silt and clay. It would be great for a farm, but I don't even need it; I can just do "gather plants" on this layer every so often and it's enough to blow past my fort's yearly food needs.

 "He is surrounded by the dwarves." That's just rubbing it in. Luckily I only lost one to the werelephant, and this guy, who gets to live forever. I should make another room next to him, for when Slumlord Dale turns up.
